what i tend to do is whip lash the shuttle up and forward. first by winding the racket, (elbows bent) then with the snap of the wrist hit the shuttle with arm full length. like a whip. bending of the elbow is very important. one motion off course

bend ur legs as you drop the shuttle to hit it and then as you are about to hit it quickley extend your legs and this should kinda get you more height and depth. sorta like coiling up your legs then spring them out juz before you hit. should add more force..

If the birthday on your profile is correct, then it just seems like you're getting into the stages where you'll be drastically developing power every year... so just be persistent, practice the serve whenever you get the chance and eventually you'll generate the power and snap in order to make perfect serves.

What I did at your age is I stood on the heel of my right foot (left foot first) and I transfered all my power from hips to feet and that was how I did it.
